Sorry that he died but it is riders like this that give the rest of us a bad name.....
Yea he made a pretty stupid mistake. And dont believe everything the news says either. Not saying its wrong but it is twisted a little. The police did not chase. They turned their lights on. Thats when they ran. The video is edited. I ride this rode everyday to go to work. At the point of impact the cops where less than half a mile away (with lights off). While they where all excelerating he got boxed in and clipped the right back half of the pickup truck He then flipped with his bike into the gaurd rail and slide from their. I know this becuase unfortunaly my neigher works Parkland ER (the hospital he died at) and worked on him. He died on the table from blood loss. Your right though....he gives us a bad name and i want to slap the shit out of him for it...but he was still a great guy that went way way too soon. Out of the 10 bikers only 1 guy stopped and accepted his ticket. No one stopped for preston.
BTW he is usually a lot guy 99% of the time...just was at the wrong place at the wrong time.

You clip a car at 100 mph ... this is the definition of wrong. No matter what the deal is your in the wrong. What if ya killed two kids and a mom? Or some old fart? wrong, wrong, wrong. Stop and take the ticket ... and keep that shit off the streets.
Alot of people here have lost friends or relatives to tragic avoidable situations. This guy lost his life riding a bike. Wether he shouldn't have been speeding, doing a wheelie or whatever. This post was put up by his friend as a tribute to the guy he was. Not to be judged, just remembered. RIP Bro.
ride in peace. damn poliz. if they didn't chase, he would not have 2 run
or he could have just stopped, if he was speeding its their job to pull him over. Its his choice to run or not, but not their fault he ran and crashed. Sucks he died but that's the choice he made with a very sad outcome.

Watching that video I care less about the guy who crashed and more about the person he rear-ended in the process and just glad that it wasn't a mother with her children in the back seat.
Comes from the guys with an avatar pic... of himself dragging knee on a public road... (Im assuming)
Sorry buddy if that pic is you, your actions are as careless as the guy this thread is about.
To the OP, I am sorry for your loss.
RIP
Little bit of a difference dragging a knee on a public road out in the canyons in the middle of no-where and there is next to no traffic at all times. Compared to riding wheelies with six of your buddies on a six lane highway surrounded by cars on all sides, there Chief. But, you're allowed your opinion. There's a huge difference when your surrounded by traffic in a city or small town. For example, if ya wanna be a dumbfuck and pop a wheelie, at least do it away from traffic and people to see. And since when is leaning a motorcycle reckless ?
^ I agree its a little different. Granted these guys were being jack asses he didnt hit the car when he did a wheelie. He hit the car after him and all his buddies were excelerating away and he got boxed in. Stupid choice on his part and no boddy deserves to die.
On the other hand your public road knee dragging pisses just a many people off. Not long ago their was a thread on here where a guy just like you draggin knee at the gap went off the edge.(he was in a full suit and concidered a very good rider by his friends as well) He died though.. so that just tells you shit does happen.
Motorcycle: RIP El Toro. Long live new bike BIG FOXIE! Ex KWS AMA 08 GSXR1000

Re: RIP to my stuntin budy Preston Cass
Theres places to talk about how to ride... and appropriate behavior
This thread is in memory of this guys friend. Out of respect for the dead, I say RIP to a fellow rider. Via con dias (or however you spell that...)
I could talk down about his behavior, but I've done stupid shit, I just got lucky, and thats the only reason I'm still here. I just try not to do that stupid shit ANYMORE... but not saying I haven't done it.
